Suggest Treatment For Hearing Loss
i am suffering from some hearing loss. My family doctor tried flushing my ear to loosen any wax build up. This did not help. I have also have inflamation but this has passed. I have now have a constant noise (sounds like the sound when you hold a sea shell to your ear). A lot of conversations are muffled due to this issue.
